Actress Amirah Vann is a mother of two! The Shirley star announced the birth of her second baby with her partner Patrick Oyeku. Amirah revealed the news in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE.

The How To Get Away With Murder alum shared that she and Patrick welcomed a baby girl over the summer. The couple chose to name their second baby Zoë Oyeku. “Our hearts are full,” Amirah and Patrick shared with the news outlet. “This summer, Zoë Oyeku arrived. Grateful to God for every smile, cuddle and 3 AM feeding. We love you so much and your sisters are thrilled. Life just got that much sweeter and purpose that much clearer. Que Dios te bendiga mi amor.”

The Changeling star and Patrick welcomed their first baby together in February 2021, a daughter named Nyla. For her daughter’s second birthday last year, the actress celebrated the occasion in an Instagram post writing, “Happy 2nd Birthday to you, Nyla! My heart beats to the rhythm of your discoveries, the pace when you corre corre corre (run), the forte and piano discovery of your voice. You are life. You are love. God bless you mi vida! Mommy and daddy love you so much!”

Amirah and Patrick have known each other since childhood, growing up in the same hometown in Queens. The couple were romantically introduced through mutual friends in 2015 and began dating shortly after. They are engaged but have not shared plans for tying the knot. For Valentine’s Day this year, the actresses gushed over her partner on Instagram writing, “YOU @patrickoyeku The way you love me is a gift from both my Heavenly Father and my earthly father who past away when I was a child. Thank you for the detailed care, unconditional love, prayers, and occasional Tims look (Rockaway all-day). I love you so ❤️ my handsome beautiful man!”

Congratulations to Amirah and Patrick on the news of their second daughter!
